[PATCH v8 1/2] PCI: Configure Root Port MPS during host probing

Current PCIe initialization logic may leave Root Ports operating with
non-optimal Maximum Payload Size (MPS) settings. The existing code in
pci_configure_mps() returns early for devices without an upstream bridge
which includes Root Ports, so their MPS values remain at firmware
defaults. This fails to utilize the controller's full capabilities,
leading to suboptimal data transfer efficiency across the PCIe hierarchy.
With this patch, during the host controller probing phase:
- When PCIe bus tuning is enabled (not PCIE_BUS_TUNE_OFF) and not
PCIE_BUS_PEER2PEER (which requires the default 128 bytes for optimal
peer-to-peer operation), and
- The device is a Root Port, the Root Port's MPS is set to its maximum
supported value.
Note that this initial maximum MPS setting may be reduced later, during
downstream device enumeration, if any downstream device does not support
the Root Port's maximum MPS.
This change ensures Root Ports are initialized to their maximum MPS before
downstream devices negotiate MPS, while maintaining backward compatibility
via the PCIE_BUS_TUNE_OFF check and not interfering with the
PCIE_BUS_PEER2PEER strategy.
